LOL, like I said, you are far too intense. Lighten up. This isn't a formal
debate. There are no judges, there are no points made or taken away, this is a
newsgroup, the electronic equivalent of a bulletin board. Perhaps, if, as you
have said elsewhere, that you are wishing to exercise your debating skills you
should find such a newsgroup on debate or on civil policy, etc. (especially as
most of your posts have little or nothing to do with the Apple II, or even
piracy of Apple II software, but rather on the copyright laws, and your
fantasies about what the law means.)

Highly unlikely. Possible, but highly unlikely. I would suggest that if you wish
to practice law, that you had least spend three years reading law, legal
definitions, and legal decisions. Historically, that's what lawyers have done
before trying to pass their law exam.
